Explore some key findings below: 📈 Fundraising revenue grew across the board in FY22. However, organizations with larger fundraising budgets saw better revenue performance than that of their peers. 💸 Most organizations get 20% or less of their gifts in noncash assets and report not having dedicated planned giving staff. 🌐 While fundraiser comfort in using data has increased over the past 3 years, most organizations are not yet leveraging AI. 🤝 With donor retention a top challenge, only 48% of organizations reported retaining over half of their new donors in the previous 12 months.

COLLABORATIVE by Classy can best be described as APPROACHABLE. It's a MUST-attend conference built on community first. I feel inspired and enthusiastic about the future. Here are the 🚨key takeaways🚨 I was excited to learn about: 1️⃣ Intelligent Ask Amounts. It allows the vast data set of both Classy and GoFundMe to be used for good, bringing intelligent asks that are personalized to each donor and optimizing the giving experience. On average, organizations saw an 11% lift in fundraising. Do I need to say more? 2️⃣ Supporter Insights. Predictive analytics can help understand the likelihood of a constituent taking a specific action, such as becoming a P2P fundraiser or major donor. 3️⃣ Giving Cart. Leading-edge technology allows donors to select multiple donation opportunities AND have a single transaction at checkout. Imagine the ability to make a recurring donation and make a one-time donation all in a single transaction. If you haven't explored Classy Studio, what are you waiting for? And Developer Studio is coming up next, I can't wait to see how it disrupts the nonprofit space. It's great to see the level of investment and innovation that's happening for the nonprofit community as a whole. #nonprofitfundraising #innovation #disrupting #collaborative2024

Fundraising Challenges - Current Outlook In 2024, charity organizations face unprecedented fundraising challenges. Economic uncertainty, stemming from global inflation and market volatility, has led to tightened donor budgets and cautious spending habits. Donor fatigue, exacerbated by constant crises and appeals, has decreased engagement and contributions. Additionally, increased competition for limited funds from a growing number of non-profits adds to the struggle. The digital transformation of fundraising requires significant investments in technology and skills. Charities must adopt advanced data analytics, AI, and digital marketing to stay relevant, yet many lack the resources for these upgrades. Trust issues also plague the sector; high-profile scandals and data breaches have made donors wary, demanding greater transparency and accountability. Furthermore, the regulatory environment is becoming more complex, with stricter compliance requirements and reporting standards. These add administrative burdens and costs, diverting resources from mission-driven activities. To navigate this evolving landscape, charity organizations must be adaptable, embrace innovative fundraising approaches, and strengthen stakeholder relationships.
